Learn to use creo (I think) and pienso (I believe) like a Spanish native speaker. In Spanish, there are two verbs to help you express what you think: "pensar" (to think) & "creer" (to believe). Contrary to English, in Spanish the most common verb to express what you think, to express your gut feeling is "creer" (to believe). To believe, creer in Spanish, is actually casual, less serious, more easygoing. While to think, "pensar", is used for more, let's say, deep thoughts. Think of using "pienso" when you are becoming more philosophical. In this Spanish class, I will guide you through all the differences between the rivalry between these cousins. While they share some of the same blood, and they use similar means to justify their end, they go through different paths. Watch this lesson and learn when to use "creer" and when to use "pensar" so you don't mix them up.

In this lesson:
00:00 Introduction to "pensar" (to think) and "creer" (to believe)
02:35 The Spanish verb "pensar" (to think)
10:48 The Spanish verb "creer" (to believe)
